Power markets are consistently bogged down by unreliable transmission and grid infrastructure. Many have begun to look to battery storage as a way to bridge the gap for true reliability in the renewables market - Chile being a prime example. Is this the path to renewable reliability? Or a short term fix for a long term problem? 

  • The role of battery storage in supporting and supplementing transmission infrastructure

  • Pricing, longevity and structuring for battery storage and long term reliable transmission- is co-existence the future?

  • Navigating regulatory policies - how are utilities and IPPs approaching efficient use of the current grid and more robust battery buildout?
